The Leys Riding School

Hoping everyone has had a great summer and enjoy their first day back at school tomorrow.
The ponies and helpers had a fun day at the beach today 🏝️ 🏇

And that’s a wrap for the last of our summer camps. We’re all exhausted 🥱 but great fun has been had! Lots of exploring and pushing boundaries, unlocking new skills!
We’ve been able to have some fun and educational trips to WHW at Belwade and the RDA at the Brae. Thank you so much to Julie and Abby for showing us around the amazing facilities. We also had a fab demo and talk from the amazing Elaine Jenkins sharing her awesome skills and knowledge with the pony clubbers.
Well done again to all our campers and of course special well done to the champions!
Now for a weekend full of pony club before a reset on Monday and back to school next week.
Thank you again to all our supporters and extra special thanks to our amazing horses and ponies. They do a fantastic job and are worth their weight in gold 🥰

A sad goodbye this evening to our faithful little corrie.
What a pony you have been, the stories will never stop and the memories ride on. You have taught many children over the years and were a firm favourite throughout. Fly high Morven star ⭐ and thank you for everything 🥰

A big thank you to Fay Colin Hope Olivia and Theo for giving the best wee pony the best well deserved retirement.

Also looking for recommendations of porta loo hire? Scot loo service has been great for years but recently prices shot up and service gone down the pan!

** Equine Influenza **

There has been a rise in cases across Scotland and in Angus.
To protect our ponies, as always can I ask that any clients that have access to other equines make sure you are changing clothes before coming to the leys. Equipment should not be shared between horses and especially not with horses stabled else where.
If children are using their own grooming kits they should be used on our ponies only and not brought if used elsewhere.
We thank you for your cooperation and hope everyone’s ponies stay well.
Equine flu is only one disease that can be easily spread with indirect contact but there are many others too. Therefore we always aim to maintain the best possible bio security to reduce risks to our ponies.
Thank you for your cooperation.
